I can see this for Alt.Law 2 ( roll degredation) but not for all other cases of Alt. Law.
Much as Vilas posted, we found that that in very gusty conditions, pilots were often feeling they didn't have enough roll control authority in Config.3, sometimes momentarily reaching full sidestick deflection. The airplane appeared to be be much more stable in Config. Full, with less sidestick inputs needed and the engines spooled up more appearing to make speed control more precise in gusts. Of course this was in normal law, and also several decades ago. I am sure updates are continually changing the airplane. Interesting discussion to try and connect subtle technical features with day to day line flying.
